After Purchasing SoA game causes total system crash on startup

[Rudolph]

Same problem as previous thread, being stuck with a black screen on launch and having to power down system. Tried reinstalling CK2 and running without any DLC's.

Hi Rudolph,

Could you also post the game logs?

* Go to '..\My Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\'
* Open settings.txt, copy and paste the entire text between [NOPARSE]

[/NOPARSE] tags
* Go to '..\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\logs\'
* Open errors.log, copy and paste the entire text between [NOPARSE]

[/NOPARSE] tags
* Open system.log, copy and paste the entire text between [NOPARSE]

[/NOPARSE] tags
* Open setup.log, search for the line with "checksum", copy and paste this entire line into your next reply

You can copy the line below and paste the text between the yellow tags

Please try a full clean install:

Important: Go to '..\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\save games\' and copy all the save games you want to keep outside the folder
* Uninstall Crusader Kings II
Steam users:[/B] uninstall the game from within steam by right clicking on the game and select "Delete content"
* Go to the folder where you installed Crusader Kings II in, and check if the Crusader Kings II folder is removed. If not, delete the entire folder
Steam users:[/B] Installation folder can be found at: '..\Steam\SteamApps\common\'
* Go to '..\My Documents\Paradox Interactive\' and remove the entire Crusader Kings II folder
* Install the game, make sure you install the game outside the 'C:\Program Files\' or 'C:\Program Files (x86)\' folders, as it can cause issues with permissions

Might have been a corruption in the files causing the game to get fully stuck, I don't know the exact cause however so cannot give you an answer to that unfortunately. Happy to know it worked out though

Have you tried the same solution as above again?
